"Then why did you recruit me?"

"I'm thinking about you... Sister Yu'er."

He hooked his hand around her hair, let it fall on his fingertips, and kissed it gently, but his eyes were looking at her. He kissed her so gently, and Luo Lingyu's face became even redder, and her heart was in a state of panic. Lu Sanlang said, "Sister Yu'er, I think... you love power, influence, and money. But can you love people?"

Lu Yun thought: I want the heart.

For someone like you, I'm not sure...if you have a heart.

Chapter 52

——Can you love someone?

It had been several days since the Flower Festival, but Luo Lingyu still remembered the words that Lu Yun said when he pressed her against the door and made her brain congested. That day, he not only kissed her, but he also forced her to wipe the wine splashed on his face and neck with a handkerchief. She was already confused, and when the snow-blue silk handkerchief in her hand touched his Adam's apple, his Adam's apple rolled lightly under her hand.

At that moment, when she looked into her lover's eyes as deep as the ocean, she suddenly found it difficult to breathe and seemed to be drowning under his gaze.

When Lu Xuechen asked her in a low voice, his Adam's apple rolled under her palm: "Still wiping?"

Luo Lingyu's voice trembled slightly, but she remained strong and calm: "Wipe it."

Lu Yun was indeed pretending to be noble, and his eyes were full of rage. He just sat there quietly, lowering his eyes, not touching her finger. But his breath touched her mouth and nose, and Luo Lingyu's breath was almost touching his face. Over and over again.

The difference between men and women was that for the first time, he brought her a clear attraction as a symbol of the opposite sex. She stared at his Adam's apple, and for a moment her fingertips trembled as she lightly scratched it.

Then, he seemed to take a breath.

Under her palm, her heart was beating rapidly, with a suppressed, magnetic breath that rubbed against her heart like sand.

The man was breathing in her ear, and Luo Lingyu finally blushed. She was so tempted by him that she couldn't go on any longer, and she almost crawled out of the door. After she left the door, her hands and feet were weak, and she felt dizzy from the sun above her head. She slapped her red cheeks, and couldn't understand why she had lost her composure in front of Lu Yun.

I felt almost dizzy and happy all day.

The Flower Festival was the happiest day for Luo Lingyu since her parents passed away. When she was in Nanyang, she flattered the elders so that she could be raised by the Luo family, which was not powerful to begin with. After coming to Jianye, she had to continue to flatter people and deal with the outstanding men and women in Jianye. She was very goal-oriented, but she was also careful not to show her weakness in front of them. They had everything, but she had nothing. The things they didn't care about were what she wanted most.

She had put in so much effort that even the princess had to use it a little...On this day, the flower god finally made her feel temporarily happy!

The ladies looked up to her, the gentlemen kept their eyes on her all day, and celebrities painted her pictures of ladies. It also included Qi Saburo's confession to her, Lu Yun's inability to restrain himself... and finally, when she took the bus back to Lu's house, she was holding Xunmei Jushi's new painting "The Goddess of Wushan" in her arms.

Because she had been away for a while, the celebrities could not see her, so they gave free rein to their imagination. The paintings that came out were full of imagination. For example, Mr. Wang's "Mountain Ghost Picture" shows a mountain ghost holding a cassia branch and being led by Xue Li. The painting makes her look mysterious and aura-filled, which is the most popular among people.

But what Luo Lingyu liked most was Lu Sanlang's "Goddess of Wushan". She was painted as the goddess of Wushan, as a fairy, making clouds and rain, hidden in the deep clouds. The beautiful fairy looked back from the top of the mountain in the clouds, and that affectionate look touched Luo Lingyu's heart and made her tremble.

When she was asked to pick a painting to take away, Luo Lingyu chose the painting of the Goddess of Wushan Mountain by Xunmei Jushi without hesitation. After Luo Lingyu shyly chose, she quietly looked at Lu Yun and whispered, "I don't mean anything else, I just simply like this painting."

Standing next to her, Lu Sanlang lowered his eyes and looked at her strangely. He seemed to be smiling, but also...hiding a secret that she didn't know. He laughed softly: "...I like her too."

He had dreamed of her.

Luo Lingyu's hands, which were holding the painting, immediately tightened.

However, no matter what, it seemed as if the thing she had always wanted had taken a big step forward and was now within her reach.

Luo Lingyu almost floats up when she walks——

The "Jade Man" who has no other girls in Jianye City to attract asks her if she can love someone. No one else makes his heart move, and he hesitates for her. He has the power and wealth that she likes. When she looks at him, it's like looking at a shining mountain of gold and silver... How can she not like him?

Luo Lingyu replied to him mischievously and proudly that day: "If you can love, then I can too."

Lu Yun just smiled at the time and didn't say anything specific.

The ambiguous relationship with Lu Yun is like a cat and mouse game, with each party guessing and wanting the other party to succumb to their charm. Generally speaking, Luo Lingyu still enjoys this kind of secret relationship that is unknown to others. This kind of self-satisfied enjoyment is brought out a lot in daily life.

In spring, the days passed by much faster. The garden was full of greenery, and there were endless banquets and flower parties. Luo Lingyu actively participated in various gatherings of Jianye men and women, and she was always smooth, talented and beautiful. Luo Lingyu didn't like or dislike anyone, only distinguished between available and unavailable. In Luo Lingyu's eyes, everyone Jianye could get in touch with was a available resource, so she naturally paid a lot of attention to them. After her persistent efforts, Luo Lingyu's reputation finally spread among the aristocratic circles of Jianye. When talking about outstanding girls, both men and women would think of her.

Mrs. Chen Xiu, since she didn't get the title of "Goddess of Flowers" this year, was usually not popular among the girls. After the graceful and graceful Luo Lingyu appeared, Chen Xiu was immediately made to feel depressed by the comparison.

However, Chen Xiu was also proud. Her father wanted to take the whole family to a place further south for summer vacation, but she insisted on not going. It is said that she even went to find Lu Sanlang and asked him whether he had any feelings for her... This is just a legend, and Luo Lingyu didn't know how her third cousin answered Chen Niangzi. Anyway, Chen Niangzi stayed in Jianye after she was sick.
